Testimonials for Tania J Coward Architect

1 September 2009

What we wanted was to renovate a 40 year old 3 bedroom brick veneer family home on an elevated forward sloping block, to provide for our future needs into retirement.

Tania Coward took an inspiring approach to provide rear ground level access to a new extended bedroom with ensuite and walk- in robe, galley study; rearranged kitchen and outdoor undercover entertainment area. She opened the new living areas up to include the courtyard and adjacent bushland setting aspect; introduced clever openings in internal walls to allow improved air flow; and as much openings as possible to let in natural light and natural aspect.

A truly fresh and inspiring rework and a pleasure to live in!

I couldn't be happier starting with the right decision of choosing Tania as the Architect to design my new home at Clayfield. From a detailed brief, Tania started the dialogue and quickly had concept drawings to discuss. What followed next was a seamless process of working together, making decisions based on good advice and experience from Tania. The plans have now been certified, building to commence shortly Tania met all deadlines and budget targets Impressive. I can't wait to live in my beautiful home. Whilst working with Tania what was evident was her professionalism, overall knowledge of the project, enthusiasm and warmth as a person, love of design and architecture. She was a joy to work with. I have no hesitation in recommending Tania Coward.

Our new house will be ready to move into in around a month. As I know nothing about building, Tania J Coward was really the best architect we could have chosen. Not only did she design a delightfully bright and environmentally sound building according to a budget, but she walked us through the process with joy and enthusiasm, and might I say - nurturing. She appreciates space in detail, and is able to convey and help her clients visualise the 3D completion. The most amazing thing about this build was her attention to detail prior to starting the build - every architectural item was chosen and quoted. We truly believe Tania J Coward Architect's detailed drawings and procedures were responsible for the complete lack of agony and stress we have felt during the build. Our new home is wonderful!

We bought a near derelict house built in 1888 at Auchenflower and entrusted the renovation and rejuvenation to Tania J Coward Architect. We could not have been more happy with her understanding and treatment of the project. The finished project was a masterful re-invigoration of a classic Queenslander. Her use of space, versatility and breezeways really transformed the house into a beautiful and comfortable family home. Thank you Tania!

Tania helped transform our three bedroom post-war home into a spacious, airy and contemporary house that we love coming home to. Throughout the design brief Tania's attention to detail was nothing short of amazing. Every step of the way we felt like our needs were given the upmost importance, with a genuine caring desire to meet the our expectations.

During the design brief we were most impressed by the professionalism and imagination demonstrated by Tania. She certainly has an eye for detail, and offered many suggestions along the way to help us create something very special, and not just another standard renovation. Not only did Tania help design our new extension to the house, but she also played a central role in obtaining quotes for the renovation and recommending high quality builders to help our dream come true. Communication throughout the design brief was of the highest level, and we never once felt like Tania wasn't giving our project the highest priority. ...

Tania has done a wonderful job in translating our brief for a well-zoned, workable, light and airy family home into a reality.

Tania's re-organisation of rooms has created better circulation between the sleep and play zones.

She has provided good attention to detail within the existing building envelope. The timber shutters added into some of the existing walls not only look terrific, but allow cross-ventilation and light into a once dark and gloomy area.

We are thrilled with the finished result, which will happily see our family live, work and play comfortably as the children grow into their teens and beyond.

Our house was designed for a famiy of 6 and was open plan, spacious, comfortable and captured the water views with the great layout. It was an easy house to live in and we are very grateful to Tania for creating such a wonderful design. Having a good set of Architectural documents to start with allowed us to build with confidence.

We worked with Tania Coward Architects and Terry O'Connor builders for the re-design of a lovely Queenslander that we had recently bought but had not yet lived in. Tania is amazing she was able to bring contemporary design features and style to our circa 1910 Queenslander without it loosing its original charm and feel. When we met Tania she said she works from the inside out and I didn't really get what that meant until Tania started her work. Tania paid a great deal of attention in finding out what we wanted and needed as a family. She stood in the centre of the house to decide is there enough kitchen cupboards, bench space; is there a study area that will work for the children; are there enough closets and bathrooms; are the living and entertaining areas suitable for now and for when the children grow. Once the inside was decided then Tania worked outward and started on the structural architecture of re-designing and opening up rooms to get the best ...
